[h2]The next event[/h2]
This is the last of our Saturday night series. From next week we will be starting a new series of events "Sunday Skirmish" at the same time every fortnight.

[h2]How to I do Join?[/h2]
This event will be on the latest pre-release beta of the upcoming "REINFORCED" Update on the '0.6-beta' branch.

You can change branch by right-clicking the game in your library, selecting properties, opening the betas tab and selecting 0.6-beta from the dropdown menu.

[h3]Warning: If you are switching from the public to beta branch it is a large update of 9.7GB as we have made a huge number of cumulative changes which affect the whole game.[/h3]

[h2]Introduction[/h2]
Work continues on bot support but we have also made a number of bug fixes including UI fixes to the spectator UI, server browser and adjustments to Carpiquet.

With this build we have also removed the password from the 0.6-beta branch to make access to the pre-release version easier.

As a reminder - capture progress is now divided into stages, which once completed are saved even if the capturing player is killed. This is intended to improve the attackers vs. defenders balance and encourage defenders to defend objectives more closely, as attackers can can make progress without completing the capture.
